AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER
Ask Alok da

When I see myself and my life so far, I have always wanted to be free…But what I see is that I am not…I want to be free in true sense…My activities currently are free in a sense where I don’t have to follow anyone and anything. But that is not exactly what free is…Could you tell me what is freedom in true sense😣?

Absolutely. There is no freedom as long as one is living in the ignorance. One is simply the slave of impulses and desires.

Freedom implies freedom from the ego and desire self. This does not happen until one has discovered the true self, the soul, the Divine Presence within and is ready to follow its guidance.

Affectionately,

Alok Da
